Greetings. I realize there is a Hitachi specific form here, but I'm not sure this belongs there.
I own a Netgear Stora "NAS" device. I thought my issue with connectivity was the well known end of life for that device. So, I removed the hard drive. Turns out, the drive itself is "frozen".
I have several SATA HDD's which i've not used in several years. This is one of them. I bought a USB / SATA adaptor to explore my old data. When I attempted to do so with this particular drive, no luck. It simply makes no sound when the power is turn on, on the USB adaptor, unlike other HDD's the same age which are functioning fine.
I scanned an image of the top of the drive for the numbers, etc. Not sure how to share it w/out picture file upload option.
Please advise. Thank you!
